Hi
I just updated the screensaver add-on and rebooted my HTPC etc.
Pressing backspace on the keyboard doesn't seem to exit the screensaver, after launching it from the Program add-ons area. However pressing Escape on the keyboard does exit.
I have a similar issue with the remote control, which is a Logitech Harmony remote setup in MCE mode.
Pressing the EXIT button (KEY_BACK) and also the CLEAR button (KEY_BACKSPACE) does not exit the screensaver.
However if I press the MENU button (KEY_ESC) on the remote control then the screensaver exits OK.
I can also confirm that pressing the STOP button on the remote control works OK as well and exits.
Not a big issue as I can just use the MENU button instead to quit the screensaver, rather than the EXIT button which is what I would normally use to back out of things, but maybe its more natural to want to press the EXIT / BACK button.
I then proceeded to add the Multi SlideShow ScreenSaver program add-on as a favourite, then in Aeon MQ5 skin, I created a sub-menu item under the Pictures menu and added this favourite to the menu system. It launches OK from the menu and also I can now quit the screensaver using the MENU (KEY_ESC) button on my remote control, so much better, as before I was unable to exit the screensaver at all.
Thank you.
